FAQs

What makes this Jack Purcell edition special?

This is a limited edition collaboration between Converse Jack Purcell and Comme des Garçons PLAY, featuring unique oversized graphics and the iconic heart-and-eyes logo.

What material is the upper made of?

The upper is made of grey canvas.

How should I clean the canvas parts?

Gently clean with a soft brush, mild soap, and cool water. Avoid machine washing or excessive soaking. Always air dry.

Is this shoe suitable for athletic performance?

This shoe is designed for casual wear and lifestyle. It is not intended for high-impact athletic activities.

What does the 'Drizzle Red' in the name refer to?

The 'Drizzle Red' likely refers to the specific shade of red used in the detailing, such as the pinstripes on the midsole, contrasted with the overall grey and off-white design.

How does the sizing typically run for Converse Jack Purcells?

Converse Jack Purcells generally fit true to size for most people, but some may find they run slightly large. It's recommended to consult a size chart or try them on if possible.

Can these shoes be worn in wet weather?

While the rubber elements offer some protection, the canvas upper is not waterproof and may stain or weaken if exposed to excessive moisture. It is best to avoid wearing them in heavy rain.

Troubleshooting

Canvas appears dirty or stained

Gently clean with a soft brush, mild soap, and cool water. For tougher stains, consider a specialized sneaker cleaner for canvas, following product instructions carefully. Ensure thorough rinsing and air dry.

Rubber toe cap or midsole has scuff marks

Use a magic eraser or a cloth with a small amount of non-abrasive cleaner to gently remove scuff marks. Wipe clean with a damp cloth afterwards.

Laces are discolored

Remove laces and soak them in a bowl of warm, soapy water. Gently rub them together or use a brush to remove dirt. Rinse thoroughly and air dry before re-lacing.

Soles feel slippery

Ensure the rubber soles are clean and free from dirt or debris that might affect grip. If wear is significant, consider professional sole treatment.
